Glad to see another IE fan. I saw them on their Glorious Burden Tour....I have a lot of badass pictures. I'll see if I can find any of them and upload them, I think they're on my comp, and if not I know I've got them on a CD.

I take it you aren't a big Dream Theater fan though?

Screw you and your awesome beard, Raum.

It actually took a lot of work. I went through three years of not being allowed to grow a beard. Didn't care freshman year, never wanted anyhting beyond sideburns, then sophmore it started to bother me with skateboarding. When they made me shave my face would burn so much that day and usually the next. Long hair made it bearable though, since I could sort of hid ebehind that. I just used an electric trimmer. Last year, my Junior year, it was bad. I'd never shave until they literally took me to the office and put the razor in my hand. I got so tired of the burning, cutting my face with razors, and above all, I find the rule absolutely ****ing absurd. Facial hair is natural for every male that has it and saying it's not allowed is equivelant, in my eyes, as saying women aren't allowed to have breasts and must have them removed before coming to school.

So, aside from refusing to shave as much as I could....I got a protest going. I came close to failing my junior year because of the days I missed when I simply refused to shave and they sent me home. Am I proud of that? no. Do I regret it? **** no, I'm damn well going to stand up for something that strikes me as so wrong. Got a petition going, annoyed the superintendent, had others refuse to shave and go home, etc. Went to the school board numerous times, got myself on the dress code comittee, and in the end, I got facial hair allowed at North Canton Hoover high School for the first time in about 50 years. I'm damn proud of that and I'll never forget it. It's been wonderful and it's worked pretty well, they just get angry when it starts getting big and bushy. But yeah....I'm very much the stand up for what you believe in type. I've refused excellent job offers because they required shaving, and I think that's wrong. It may seem silly and irrelevent to some people, but I think it's such an absurd idea that I'll do everything legal to stand against it.

wow pimpshiznid you look really different in that picture....have you changed anything? hair color?  :huh:  :blink:

different in good way, or different in bad way? :unsure: lol.

Um, other than actually trying to dress up now for work, not much. I was going to go dark on my hair color, but decided against it. But yeah, nothing. :huh:

    • Looks like the 7.1 is fake effects, can it at least do real 5.1? It says 'virtual 7.1' in all descriptions.
    • You can't, if you didn't notice, it doesn't support surround at all, it's right in the spec list.
    • Hi — I’m always interested in soundcards. Like displays, I just want to know I’m getting as much clean “sonic juice” into my brain as possible as the years take their toll. I’m not entirely sure what to take away from this review, though. It doesn’t really tell me whether the AE‑X is a good product or who it’s actually for. Most of what I’m getting is: there’s a driver to install, here’s what it looks like, and here’s what’s in the box. There’s a lot of emphasis on the SPDIF input. When you mention not needing to switch headphones between console and PC — does that mean the PC has to be powered on just to pass audio through? That seems like a fairly big waste of energy. Is this more something a streamer would use alongside a capture card? How are you testing the sound? (Also, you might want to clarify that you’re using the headphones in wired mode when you mention they’re wireless.) You mention the lack of EMI shielding — how much real‑world difference does that make compared with typical motherboard audio? On multi‑channel: what exactly isn’t supported? Does this mean Windows spatial audio (Dolby Atmos for Headphones, DTS Headphone:X, etc.) won’t work, or just that the card itself doesn’t decode surround formats? And are there any true multi‑driver “surround” headphones left that would even use that? You also highlight support for high‑impedance headphones — but what does that translate to in practice? How does it compare to driving the same headphones from a normal device, and does it make any difference for everyday, lower‑impedance models? In short, who is this card actually targeted at?
    • Yes, THIS is wordart, not the styling that can now be done. Wordart was all about those curvy words, that you could change the path of, like making words go around a circle. I don't think it can be done now, right?
